Jon Baliles-RVA Superhero-Drops Out: Jack & Levar, which of you will step up? Ankle Biter by Michael C. Hild - November 2, 2016November 3, 2016249 Jon Baliles is an RVA superhero. Yes, you heard me. He just put on a weighty necklace of kryptonite and took one for the team. Why? Because that is what it is going to take to save RVA during this Mayoral election. This mere mortal just elevated to superhero stature in our book. This is all because Jon Baliles just withdrew from the Mayoral race in an attempt to prevent RVA from ending up with the cockroach that is Joe Morrissey as Mayor. You see, there are too many candidates splitting the vote in this Mayoral election. The numerous candidates split the field and were giving the laughingstock charlatan and disbarred criminal (otherwise known as Joe Morrissey) a legitimate chance to win. So the logical question is: will Jack Berry or Levar Stoney drop out next? Are either going to put RVA first by stepping aside so we don’t end up with a disbarred criminal as the head of RVA? If either do, they will elevate themselves to superhero status as a result. Dear Jack and Levar, Jon Baliles showed his love for the City. Will you? We are all waiting. Step up please-your pedestal awaits.

He’s helping to narrow the field so that “other than Joe” votes aren’t split 3 ways, reducing his chances of winning. Reply

Thank you, Councilman. I think you would have been an excellent Mayor, but I’m glad you put RVA first. Reply
I hate that the best candidate, the one that truly loves this city, dropped out to try to save it from a bad candidate. Reply

Parker S Galore read what statement? The article? I did- that’s where my question is coming from. Reply

Who’s on first? 🙂 Anyway, I don’t believe he has ever been convicted of a felony; indicted twice, but has always pleaded them down to misdemeanors. Reply

It sounds like y’all want Morrissey to be mayor, if you are asking for Jack Berry to step down. He is the only one who has a shot at beating Morrissey. Reply
They’re asking one of the two of them to step down because there is a *very* good chance of Morrissey winning if they both stay in. Reply
This is simply misleading. Stoney is doing better in the districts that Morrissey could actually lose. Reply
Although Berry has the popular vote all of the independent polls that I have seen indicate that Stoney has a better chance at winning as he is 2nd in more districts. I’m worried that the confusion on this point will further divide the votes and we’ll still end up with Morrissey. I think Berry should drop out, but his big money financial backers make that an unlikely scenario. Reply
